The Pentagon deleted webpages on the Holocaust, on Medal of Honor recipient SGT Henry Johnson, and on Jackie Robinson.

Now they’re banning books on the Holocaust, Maya Angelou’s autobiography, and American history.

It’s despicable.

#BREAKING CBS News obtained an internal NSA bulletin from Feb. 2025—a month before the Houthi chat—which warns NSA employees of using Signal, adding, that that the app should “NOT” be used for communicating CUI, unclassified, protected information. t.co/1pcMZFSa2C

Crow: You were also traveling during this discussion, correct?

Gabbard: Yes.

Crow: And where were you?

Gabbard: I don't recall which country I was in at that time.

Crow: You don't remember the country?

Ratcliffe: No

Ossoff: This is an embarrassment. We will get the full transcript of this chain and your testimony will be measured carefully against its content

These ppl don't know what they are doing. It's not only about the USA, it's about NATO countries too. They will fuck our security too.
The Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, and the CIA Director, John Ratcliffe, not knowing DoD policy on classified and controlled unclassified information on unsecured devices is appalling.

Good question, Senator Mark Kelly!

Top White House officials used disappearing messages on Signal for top-secret national security discussions—violating federal law & risking our security. Even worse? A participant was in Moscow.

Congress must investigate. This betrayal cannot stand .

The entire conversation is a disaster. It was an illegal use of a disappearing messaging app which none of them objected to. Hegseth appears to have copied and pasted the targeting packages into the chat, and Witkoff was literally in Moscow when he joined the chat. open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...
It's a thousand times worse than you think
Their little group chat is the tip of a truly historic intelligence breach

Mark Kelly is about as centrist and polite as you can get and would never attack a fellow veteran. Kelly literally said he couldn’t find a single quality in Hegseth that would permit him to run the military. Kelly’s words were a stunning indictment.
